Let NA orgs field 5 koreans/ KR/EU teams to increase the competition and maybe we gonna see the result at MSI/worlds

Lmao, the only reason why NA would be competitive internationally at that point would be because of the talent drain on other regions.

In my opinion, the import restrictions should be made stricter. 1 import per team and no imports on academy teams. Maybe then NA will get some players who play competitively to actually win, not just some players from other regions who care more about money than winning.

I think its more that since he is the best player in the world, every midlaner has to respect him even if he is down 1, 2, 3 even 4 kills. Faker aggros hard even with a disadvantage. However, this is the issue with having peanut over blank since blank will always hover near mid and keep the surrounding area lit up even if it negatively affects his own clear + ganks whereas peanut tends to not do so.

I wouldn't be so certain about that. I remember reading somewhere (Unsure where - will try dig it out) that China holds more US govt. debt that anyone else in the world, and if it were to call it in it could bankrupt the US govt.

Yea, and what happens if EU's best team gets in a group with RNG and ROX?

If that EU team was also much better in boX games than they would be screwed. Sure theres the whole "you have to beat the best to be the best" but there is a huge difference in group stage bo1 play and a bo5 which allows teams to adapt.

Eh, I suppose if Rush can match Flaw it would be a good matchup against SBENU. Flaw did hard carry SBENU in the relegation matches though, but Rush is also a capable hard carry jungler so that would be a pretty exciting matchup.

Are we just gonna sit here and pretend that my claims are pure bullshit? Fact is, the 18-0 Fnatic I've been watching all split long would never dive that. I'm not being a salty Fnatic fan or anything cause tbh I couldn't care less who won, I watch the games that's all. But this Semi has been bugging me for 3 days straight like I'm not even kidding I have watched the Fnatic vs KOO semi 3 times already and I still cannot get over the fact that my Bronze III mate would make better calls than YellowStar/the entire team did in those 3 games. Which is also weird due to the fact that Fnatic's superior shotcalling has been the reason of their succes.

Well 1, I doubt your bronze 3 mate would make better calls than what fnatic made that game, especially the calls that got them the lead in the first place.

Fnatic simply got outplayed.

The pressure probably got to the more emotional members like huni and reignover.

This is also the first year professionally for Febiven, so he probably felt the heat. You could see it in his play in the later games, where he would make some strange summoner choices, and he looked off. Again this is most likely due to the pressure of a WORLDS SEMI FINAL.

Your bronze 3 friend, or even anyone playing league, from bronze to challenger, NEVER had to play league in such a high stakes match, with millions watching.

Obviously mistakes will be made, its not all some "conspiracy" against the western teams.

Are you aware that skt didn't make season 4 worlds at all? considering this season faker has the potential to bring his team to a possible world chip, its not that farfetched to call it a "comeback". of course faker has always been one of the best lol players but his team didnt even make it to group stages last year.

people are so bent on being pissed off for riot at everything honestly.. if this quikshot quote didn't exist everyone would be sucking roit off for this doc on the frontpage

And the "didn't even make it to groups last year", at the golden age of OGN LoL. The two best teams in the world at the time, the two samsungs, a KTA that was surging in summer, and a NBWS that went godmode in the gauntlet
